Response from the competent authority: 'Reply from the Ministry of Health:With regard
  to the area of the initiative, which falls within the competence of the Health Insurance
  Institution of Slovenia (hereinafter: ZZZS), we have requested a reply from ZZZS,
  whose reply is summarised below.ZZZS publishes data on the number of persons registered
  with doctors and information on whether the doctor is still accepting insured persons,
  taking into account the achievement of the agreed number of headache ratios per
  team. The data are published three times a month and concern the data on the choices
  made by the personal physicians as providers in the information system of the ZZZS
  (hereinafter: on-line system). The insured person makes a choice of a personal physician
  by signing a Declaration of Choice with the personal physician, which is recorded
  by the personal physician in the on-line system. This means that the data published
  on the website of the ZZZS concerning the choices are correct, provided that the
  personal physicians keep an up-to-date record of these choices. It should be noted
  that, in accordance with the Instruction to providers for the exercise of the right
  of insured persons to choose a personal doctor, personal doctors are obliged to
  transmit the data on the choice to the on-line system of the HHIC as of the date
  of the choice (which they usually do), but in exceptional cases no later than within
  7 days after the choice has been made. The aforementioned 7-day deadline may be
  the reason for a delay of several days in updating these data and for a possible
  discrepancy between the data published on the website of ZZZS and the actual situation
  of the choices made. The termination of the choice may also be due to the death
  of the insured person, the loss of the insured person''s characteristics or termination
  at the request of the insured person.The data on all terminated choices are sent
  by the ZZZS to the individual personal physicians on a monthly basis, as more frequent
  sending would place an additional burden on the personal physicians and would interfere
  excessively with their regular duties in the outpatient clinics. They import the
  data on interruptions into their own information system and thus ensure the correctness
  of the data on the number of patients with each individual doctor in their own records.As
  regards the discrepancies between the list published on the website of the ZZZS
  and the actual situation with the providers, the ZZZS will inform the providers
  and ask them to keep their own records of the data on choices up-to-date on an ongoing
  basis.'
